Lyrics
(Nina Simone) If I had my way I'da been a killa Okay That's true I woulda had guns And I would have gone to the south And gave em violence for violence Shot gun for shot gun If I had my way But my husband He told me I didn't know anything about guns And he refused to teach me And the only thing I had was music So I obeyed him But if I had my way I wouldn't be sitting here today I'd be Probably dead What if this flag wasn’t Red White and Blue? What if the black panthers still was the move? What if yo big homies was Malcolm X Muhammad Ali and Huey P Newton? And that God you ask forgiveness for turns out to be you? And what if killin' yo own kind meant that you instantly die ? And rape yo mother land and Queen and call her history now? Imagine that nose that got shot off the Sphinx look just like mine And no religion existed No queen of England just some Kings Of Egypt What if yo last name wasn’t yo slave masters? And being born with dark skin made you Royal family Imagine every face on this money was someone you was related to And ropes around ya neck was always gold and not for hanging you Yeah You get the Klu cuz only a chicken Klux in a Klan Burn down ya village and give everyone Afrikan names See wife and kid and f**k em both You on boat wit that sh*t Uncle Sam really yo Auntie and life ain't a b*t*h Kidnap then let you off the rope Then go hunt for yo ass Teach you a prayer so you're basically callin' me dad Pimping at its finest Gotta you loving this flag that I’m flying Think that I’m lying
